A Deeper Look At Vedic History Suggests A Tribal Melting Pot That May Surprise The Hindu Nationalist
https://t.co/gi0ZUWkg26
What are we to make of the five Anu brothers- Pundra, Suhma, Odhra, Anga and Vanga- whose names later became the names of places and cities? What are we to make of the Druhyu ruler- Gandhara- whose name survives to the modern age as Kandahar, Afghanistan? Is it mere coincidence that there was a ruler in the Yadu tribe named Mathu, and that Mathura was a Yadava town? Should we ignore the fact that there existed a Suryavanshi king named Ayuddha, and the patronymic derived from him is Ayodhya?

This design is called the vesica piscis, or the 'vessel of the fishes'. As the name implies it bears a relation to Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, ‒ the birth sign of the Mother.

Another way of looking at it is the typical NRI view of India in general and our traditional Vaidikas in particular. They have a very jaundiced view of contemporary India but strangely expect Vaidikas to be shining beacons. An NRI family I'm close to financed a paThashAla 3

The RSS fancies itself a vanguard, a World Teacher. Yet its understanding of the extant challenges is less than the common man's, who simply sees what he sees. The RSS has a warped perception, misformed by attachment to ulterior aims, esp. for a secularist pat on the shoulder.

An overwhelming majority of Indians are born after Independence and hence matters relating to prior to that date shouldn't be of material importance. Concentrating on the present is more prudent than bothering about the kings, wars, their tyranny, temples, traditions, or rituals.
